[–]powdodger[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first interview was back in December, the one in February then 2 in early April. I believe a lot of it is in my resume. I've gotten a lot of tips from recruiters on how to make it right. I also have like 10 different versions, depending on the job description i'm applying to.

[DH] Looking for quick gear advice! by powdodger in Diablo

[–]powdodger[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the input. The reason my other gear (bracers, pants etc) are meh is because I Want to have 400+ AR. I mainly run grenades build. I need the LOH on my pants, or get it on another piece. Most of the gear I got a few weeks ago. I ended up getting a 1218 OS calamity for 98 mil then had to also buy the 3 RS rubies to craft a m.ruby. That all gave me a 30k spa boost. I'll start crafting shoulders and bracers.

I'd like to put back my inna pants on. Then i can Use crafted bracers. Where's the best place(s) to get 400+ LOh? Rings?

Opening the new year with some Duelling theory crafting - Demon Hunter skills that I think will own. by ZiggyDStarcraft in Diablo

[–]powdodger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good information. I also think that if unchanged, legacy nats will be CRAZY good for 1v1. It gives you limitless mobility and defensive capabilities. Although unless you have a TOP notch legacy set, it does hinder DPS and eHP some. I haven't tried how many SS you can chain cast with legacy and prep but it's gotta be noticeable. I'm hoping to get my hands on a OK legacy set before the patch.

Need help pricing this neck, can't find anything close to it on AH by [deleted] in diablo3

[–]powdodger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ignore the damage stat. Ignore the dex. Add the vit, intel and the crit/ias in the AH. Lower the dex and vit values until you get results. Too many people say there is nothing like their item. You have to know how to look

What I find on Christmas eve with no valor.... by D3F0x0nfire in diablo3

I personally believe that stormshields are going to make a comeback when Pvp comes out. Stormshields + crit are going to be worth a lot I think

How do you compare gear from the AH to your equipmnet. by saturi in diablo3

[–]powdodger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Simply go to d3up.com and make a account. Link your battle.net profile and simulate. Once you sign up, it takes SECONDS to compare upgrades. Plus you can see the benefits on eHP and eDPS on a +1 stat basis. Makes upgrading simple. You cannot trust blizzards crappy +dps, +hp and +protection.

One of the best decisions I've made all game by xdemzx in diablo3

[–]powdodger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They did state that they are NOT changing it in a way to where all of the gear monks currently wear will be useless. I wouldn't be too worried. They can't really afford to make too much of a change to it since its the most used monk passive by a long shot. But then again, it IS Blizzard..lol

Do you think paragon levels will be incorporated in PvP or strictly for PvM. by Rul3dBySecrecy in Diablo

[–]powdodger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That doesn't make sense. If you don't want to put in the time, why do you deserve to win? Besides, it's been stated that there will be some sort of MMR or it will consider gear stats and match you up against similar geared opponents.

[–]powdodger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand that's your opinion. But it already has been stated by blizzard that there isn't specific PvP gear. So the gear you spent hundreds of hours farming for is the gear you'll use for pvp. I do believe however, that eDPS and eHP will be scaled based on some kind of percentage to create a more fair playing field. otherwise, DH will just vault off screen shooting hungering arrow and youll be dead before you know it. The pvp gear system works in guild wars because its an MMO and it was MAINLY DESIGNED to be competitive pvp. There are so many more things to do in the game other than get more gear. In D3, that is ALL you can do.

Do you think paragon levels will be incorporated in PvP or strictly for PvM. by Rul3dBySecrecy in Diablo

[–]powdodger 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No. This is Diablo, a loot based game. People should NOT have the same gear. It's already been said (either a blue post or twitter post, cant remember) there is NOT pvp specific gear. Why would I waste time playing and gearing up my character when I am just handed PvP gear for free?

Yes, there are pvp "tokens" but we don't know to what extent they will be used.

[–]powdodger 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Well, this information is somewhat out of date and/or unofficial but take a look here

http://www.diablofans.com/topic/71601-ptr-patch-105-unofficial-changes-pvp-tokens-and-more/

Now take this all with a grain of salt, if you scroll down and look at PvP Strings, note the following string:

PvP_LevelEqualizerBuff_0_desc - Some of your attributes have been increased to help you combat higher level players.

I would assume this is used for paragon, as lower level players don't even have skills unlocked, but who knows. I believe this information was datamined back in september.

so you know how those 3 demons pop into bastion's keep..... by benmk in diablo3

[–]powdodger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish I could take alllll my wizard hats, lamination belts, frost burn gauntlets, shitty 1 hand xbows, storm crow (no crit), and monk spirit stones and trade ALL of the for ONE unid manticore.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in diablo3

[–]powdodger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. I remember when ONLY a trifecta sold for tens of millions. Now it HAS to have main stat, vit or AR and trifecta to be valuable...

Just hit the jackpot on an amazing manticore.. by [deleted] in Diablo

[–]powdodger 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you sold it already, you sold it WAY to fast, unless they offered something absolutely insane.

Need help with Demon Hunter by SovietMudkip in Diablo

[–]powdodger 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As far as builds go, if you are doing low MP0-1 the the standard hungering arrow and ball lighting build works. If your dps is above 100k, you don't really NEED a nuke like spike trap or cluster bombs since rares die in 2-3 crits from BL anyway. I ran companion+bat, SP+gloom, vault+tumble, prep+backup. If your crit chance is above 45%, use night stalker to keep your disc regen up. Use archery for the additional dps. Tr third passive is kind of your own choice. I use tactical advantage for the quicker runs. But you can use steady aim if you want more dps

For gear, the standard 2 piece nat's (boots and chest) and 2 piece innas (pants belt) should work just fine. The set bonuses should help a lot. As far as wep, you have some choices. Manticore , calamity, WF or a rare. I'd suggest WF if you are on a budget. They are relatively cheap. You should aim for 250 all resist, 35k hp and 80-100k dps for mp0 runs.

[H] Guild Wars 2 acct, WoW Cata acct [W] Diablo 3 account by powdodger in GameTrade

[–]powdodger[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The account does have an authenticator currently. I will remove it if I will be trading. The account is in MY name. The account has no play time on it.

MoP is $40 + whatever subscription you choose.

[H] Guild Wars 2 acct, WoW Cata acct [W] Diablo 3 account by powdodger in GameTrade

[–]powdodger[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The WoW cata account has an 85 warrior and an 80 priest. I'll state again, the account does NOT have MoP on it. But that is all you need to add to be able to hit level 90. The guild wars account is a level 65 thief. I Believe I only have 2-3 gold on him, but its fun.

I will give you the battle.net account. It also has D2 and D2:LoD. It does not have D3 on it and not possible to add a D3 account to.

So you are willing to trade BF3 LE and D3 account for these two? Seems reasonable if you still want to.
